Significant earthquake of magnitude 5.6 just reported 100 km southeast of Gushikawa, Japan An earthquake of magnitude 5.6 occurred early morning on Friday, February 13th, 2026, at 6:48 am local time near Gushikawa, Uruma Shi, Okinawa, Japan, as reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC).
According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a moderately shallow depth of 36. km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake which listed the quake at magnitude 5.6 as well. A third agency, the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), reported the same quake at magnitude 5.5.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Nanjo (pop. 44,000) located 96 km from the epicenter, Katsuren-haebaru (pop. 34,200) 97 km away, Yaese (pop. 30,900) 98 km away, Gushikawa (pop. 65,300) 100 km away, Nakagusuku (pop. 22,200) 100 km away, Uruma (pop. 125,300) 101 km away, Ginowan (pop. 100,100) 103 km away, Okinawa (pop. 142,800) 103 km away, Urasoe (pop. 115,700) 105 km away, and Naha (pop. 317,600) 107 km away.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available. If you’re in the area, please send us your experience through our reporting mechanism, either online or via our mobile app. This will help us provide more first-hand updates to anyone around the globe who wants to know more about this quake.
